Recover from love addiction and create a vibrant, healthy life—without your ex.

Do you feel like you're never going to get over your ex? Do thoughts and memories of a past romance bring you unbearable pain? Are you consumed by anger, sadness, frustration, and rumination about what went wrong? If so, you may have an unhealthy love addiction. You aren't alone, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. For people who struggle with love addiction, a breakup can feel overwhelming. The good news is there are tools you can use to begin healing.

Written by a psychologist and leading love addiction expert, Letting Go of Your Ex offers powerful, evidence-based skills and techniques grounded in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help you combat the overwhelming symptoms of love addiction, get unstuck from the past, and start focusing on what makes you happy, right here and now.

You'll learn:

  • How and why love can function like an addiction
  • How to change the harmful beliefs that keep you stuck on your ex
  • How childhood experiences affect adult romantic relationships
  • How to avoid recreating old dynamics in a new relationship

Love addiction is real—and just like any addiction, it can leave you in a constant state of craving, withdrawal, and hopelessness. But there is hope for recovery. Using the tools in this compassionate and nonjudgmental guide, you can start moving toward the life you deserve.
